islamic fals : Umayyad or Abbassid?
« on: April 27, 2021, 03:26:45 am »
AE fals, diam. 21 mm, 2.02 g. It looks very much like an Abbassid coin c. 200 AH (9th c. AD) but I should appreciate any information... Thank you !

Yes, probably early Abbasid.  They are fiendishly difficult for us non-experts to identify....

An expert told me that kashida is typical in Abbassid coins
